Answer: (19, -1, 21)
Explanation
The x coordinate of point P is x = -6
The x coordinate of vector v is x = 25
Add those together to get 19.
In other words we started at -6 on the x number line, moved 25 units to the right, to arrive at 19 on the number line.
The "19" is the x coordinate of the final answer.
The same idea is applied to the y coordinates as well.
Start at y = 4. Move down 5 units to arrive at y = -1.
It might help to draw out a vertical number line.
The "-1" is the y coordinate of the final answer.
Same idea for the z coordinates.
Start at z = 2.
Move up 19 to arrive at z = 21.
The "21" is the z coordinate of the final answer.
